Abstract

We present unusual microstructures formed by patchy metallodielectric particles under high frequency alternating current (AC) electric fields. These particles assemble into two-directional percolated networks and lattices of unusual symmetry by interactions pre-programmed by their patch size and orientation. Electrostatic simulation results indicate that the assembly pattern of the patchy particles is guided by quadrupolar and multipolar interactions.
